There was a strong sense of sisterhood she said, and women of all ages from the actual sisterhoods in three participating synagogues— host Temple Am Echad (the former Temple Emanu-el) in Lynbrook, Reconstructionist Temple Beth Emeth in Woodmere and Central Synagogue of Rockville Centre, were able to mix, mingle, meet new people and enjoy the camaraderie.

They ranged in age from the very young to 95-year-old Miriam Fine of Lynbrook, who has been a member of Am-Echad — the former Temple Emanu-el — for 75 years. Her parents were also members of the congregation.
